Fall Home Prep: The Essential Winterizing Checklist (opens the original)
Read excerpt
Turning the home into a cold-weather fortress helps save energy, which in turn saves money and improves overall comfort. It also lessens the strain on that big-ticket item—the heating system—which increases its overall lifespan. Trust me, preparing the home for winter is worth it. One of the easiest ways to start is by checking for air leaks. Take a dollar bill and close a window or door on it. If it can be easily pulled out, you may need to replace the weather stripping. Next, turn off the HVAC
Beautiful Flowers to Plant for a Colorful Fall Garden (opens the original)
Read excerpt
Fall sun is weaker than summer, so make sure that mums—in fact, any blooming flowers—get at least six hours of sun each day for a productive bloom. When it comes to watering, a little goes a long way. Water when the top inch or two of soil begins to dry out.

Many deciduous trees, including oaks, maples, crabapples, redbuds, hackberries, hawthornes, honeylocusts, and lindens, can be planted successfully in the fall. Evergreens such as pine and spruce need to get into the ground in early fall when the soils are war
September Gardening Tasks: Preparing the Garden and Yard for Winter (opens the original)
Read excerpt
The garden may be winding down, but September is hardly a month for putting away the gardening gloves. Cool nights and warm soil create an ideal window for feeding cool-season lawns, planting spring bulbs, and preparing tender summer bloomers for winter. A little attention now can help the garden finish the season strong—and get a head start on spring. Cool-season grasses are grown widely in the northern two-thirds of the country. Their most important feeding occurs in the fall. Plan to fertiliz
